He also tried to break into a home but was confronted by the 87-year-old householder, Exeter Crown Court heard.
Cawley admitted two attempted robberies and a burglary and was jailed for three years and four months.
The court heard 53-year-old Cawley went into the Tesco and Betfred shops on 22 April and threatened to shoot staff unless they handed over cash.
